[Verse]

   Gm
We all came out to Montreux
              F    Gm
On the Lake Geneva shoreline
Gm
To make records with a mobile
F         Gm
We didn't have much time
Gm
Frank Zappa and the Mothers
                 F      Gm
Were at the best place around
Gm
But some stupid with a flare gun
                 F      Gm
Burned the place to the ground


[Chorus]

C            Ab      Gm
Smoke on the water a fire in the sky
C            Ab
Smoke on the water

[Verse 2]

Gm
They burned down the gambling house
                F     Gm
It died with an awful sound
Gm
A funky Claude was running in and out
F       Gm
Pulling kids outa the ground
Gm
When it all was over
                F      Gm
We had to find another place
Gm
But Swiss time was running out
                        F        Gm
It seemed that we would lose the race


[Chorus]

C            Ab   Gm
Smoke on the water a fire in the sky
C            Ab
Smoke on the water

[Verse 3]

Gm
We ended up at the Grand Hotel
       F     Gm
It was empty cold and bare
Gm
But with the Rolling truck Stones thing just outside
F          Gm
Making our music there
Gm
With a few red lights, a few old beds
          F        Gm
We made a place to sweat
Gm
No matter what we get out of this
       F             Gm
I know, I know we'll never forget


[Chorus]

C            Ab   G
Smoke on the water a fire in the sky
C            Ab
Smoke on the water
